Fastbrakes BBK

Received my Fastbrakes BBK shipment Saturday. Here are some pics. I'll have them installed this week. Can't wait.

looks good!! are they about $780 shipped to your door? i am thinking about getting them for my car next summer. Please tell us the result after you have them installed, and dont forget pictures of them installed on ur car

i think this is a good substitute for type-s/manual brembo conversion and the price is cheaper too.

Nice, we've sold a number of these kits and customers have been happy. We have them on sale too if anyone needs a kit:

Yeah we shipped out a few sets too....a purrdy red front and rear kit. Fastbrakes is the best bang for the buck on your brakes.

Looks great! I am torn between getting the kit or an A-Spec kit. Only thing holding me back is the fact that it doesn't look like the rotors are coated and will eventually rust on the hats and edges where the pads don't touch. I noticed there is a 12.2 kit with a 2 piece rotor... might go with that if they use the same 4 pot calipers....

These are corrosion resistant just like the black ones you are thinking of. These might be more resistant to rust really.

Got them installed today. Man the oem bolts were a pain to take off. I didn't really take any before pictures and it got dark so I'll take some after pics in the morning and post them.

Here's some pictures. Not the greatest, but they'll have to do for now. Got new tires today as well. My tires suffered serious camber wear. Pretty pricey month.









Here's a pic of them with the new tires on it and after the bed-in procedure. Running 235/35/19 now instead of 225/35/19




Any recommendations for rear camber kits?
I'll get some better pics when I have time.

Brakes look great!

I just installed an Ingalls rear camber kit. I was -1.8 and burned up the inside of my tires. (four month old RE960s the Alignment shop said they made it easy to adjust and now it is happily in spec.

I dont see any reason why they wouldnt as the OEM wheels are made to accommodate larger calipers.

How large are the stock rotors? How noticeable of an improvement is it over stock?

Thanks for all the comments guys. Haven't had a chance to really test these brakes yet with family and stuff around lately. Hopefully after the holidays I'll be able to tell you guys how I feel about these.
